Ubuntu :: Mount: Special Device /dev/scd0 Does Not Exist
Sep 12, 2010The CD-ROM on this computer, my ubuntu laptop, does not seem to be working properly. It works on and off. I burned a .iso image yesterday but today I can't get it to even read the CD in my drive. I just want to read the CD to see if it is the Ubuntu Live CD I burned a while ago or if it is the Vista Recovery CD.
TL;DR: CD-ROM isn't working properly. When I click on the drive this is the error.
Code:
mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist
P.S. I am trying to get Windows Office to install using Wine because I am tired of windows. I know that open office is great. but I have to have excel 2007 and word 2007 for school.
Ubuntu :: Mount: Special Device //nas/share Does Not Exist
Sep 30, 2010I've just upgraded to the new version of Ubuntu (10.04) and I've got a problem with the mounting configuration.
My PC access to a NAS server which is running samba. Everything worked great before upgrading
In the /etc/fstab, I added the following line :
Code:

Software :: Mounting Logical Partition - Special Device Does Not Exist?
May 2, 2010I have created a logical partition (/dev/sda5) and have formatted it with an ext3 filesystem and given it the label PHOTOS.
# mkfs.ext3 -L PHOTOS /dev/sda5
If I mount it to my /PHOTOS directory manually, it does so correctly. However, when I try to automount, it gives me this message:
# mount -a
mount: special device PHOTOS does not exist
I've entered this line in my fstab file:
PHOTOS/dev/sda5ext3defaults0 0
I'm just not sure what's happening; I've never had trouble mounting a filesystem before. Oh and it's a RHEL 5 installation.
General :: Device / Special File Clairification Requested
Oct 1, 2010Device/Special file Clairification Requested.I'm reading a short article on Device/special files because it is related to VFS. This article has this paragraph that has to many pronouns in it to get an understanding of. URL..."In short, a device file (also called as a special file) is an interface for a device driver that appears in a file system as if it were an ordinary file. This allows software to interact with the device driver using standard input/output system calls, which simplifies many tasks."
What does a Device file have to do with the Application and the Driver communicating? Wouldn't the order of data transfer be , Application to driver and then to Device file?

CentOS 5 :: Create Device Special Files Without Rebooting?
Mar 21, 2011I made a duplicate of a Centos 5.5 system disk with dump (dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb). No device files for sdb were created, but I guess that's not too surprising. I rebooted, and the device files were created. But how would I create them if I wanted to avoid the reboot?
I looked around for info on mknod and MAKEDEV but didn't find a lot.

Ubuntu :: Mount Point 0 Does Not Exist?
Feb 26, 2010I am dual-bootng Ubuntu 9.10 and Mint 8, both of which use GRUB2. The Mint 8 GRUB sets the initial menu since Mint was loaded after Ubuuntu 9.10. Since both use GRUB2 I was not concerned about this.
Both before the installation of Mint and afterward I see a series of messages fly by on the screen when Ubuntu is booted. These come right after the initial presentation of the Ubuntu logo.
By restarting several times I can read the first several lines. They are:
Mount: Mount Point 0 does not exist
Mount 0 terminated with status 32
Mountall: Filesystem could not be mounted
Further lines follow but I would have to reboot umpteen times to have any chance of copying those.
I have looked in the various Ubuntu GRUB2 files for "Mount Point 0". I do not see any reference to it.
GParted, BKID and etc/fstab all agree on the UUIDs set for my Ubuntu/, Ubuntu Home and Ubuntu swap file.
I see nothing like this when I boot Mint 8.
My questions:
What is the point to error messages (I assume that is what they are) that fly by too quickly to be read? Are they saved to a logfile somewhere?
What is "Mount Point 0"?
What does it mean in this context to say "Filesystem could not be mounted"?
This is all very curious because Ubuntu proceeds to mount and run just fine.
What is Ubuntu trying to do as it starts up that it cannot do?
How do I repair whatever has to be repaired in order to turn off these messages?
I have looked through such GRUB2 dcumentation as I can find without seeing any reference to this.
General :: Can't Mount Usb Disk - It Just Create /dev/sg Device But No /dev/sd
Dec 23, 2010I have a Corsair R60 ssd disk which is a disk with both sata and usb connectors. But the usb thing seems to be a bit non-standard, or maybe its just my fedora linux.When I insert the disk using a usb cabel to a running Fedora 14 linux system, a device called /dev/sg3 is added but that is all. No new /dev/sd* device is created so I can't mount the disk.
If I look at
cat /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs
I get
ATA Hitachi HTS54321 FB2O
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50N RP05
Seagate Desktop 0130
Corsair CSSD-R60GB2
So the disk is there. (The last entry) but my linux will for some reason not see it as a usb hard disk. When I insert other usb disks they work fine. It is only this specific disk which causes problems. I have tried on 3 different computers with the same result.
A hint to the problem may be that if I add the disk to a windows system(With usb) the disk is called "A fixed disk" and not a portable disk as expected. The disk works fine with linux If i connect it with the sata cabel, but I would really like to have it working with usb too. (To mount it on computers without sata).
Added:I did try to mount /dev/sg3 but mount say that its not a block device. (File say Its a character special device).
Added output from dmesg:
[ 97.454073] usb 7-1: USB disconnect, address 2
[ 105.913055] hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3
[ 107.048054] usb 2-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
[ 107.162900] usb 2-3: New USB device found, idVendor=1b1c, idProduct=1ab8
[code]....
I found an other guy with exactly the same problem [URL] so I think its beginning to look like a bug in the drives firmware or in the linux kernel.
Final update:Corsair have said that the disk design is broken and there does not seem to be any way to make it work.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Mount - Filesystem Handling For Embedded Device?
Jan 21, 2011I am developing a device that will run Linux as its operating system.The device is a small form factor X86 device with a flash drive exposed as a SATA-device. So it is not very dissimilar from any other PC running Linux.For several good reasons I am building my own "distribution", instead of using an existing one.What confuses me is how mount/umount of the root file system is handled.I boot my kernel with the commandline "root=/dev/sda1 rw" which works fine. But everytime I do poweroff or reboot Busybox complained about no /etc/fstab, so I decided to build one.Should I have an entry for my root file system? It seems like this is shadowed by the rootfs anyway. I.e. if I have the fstab entry "/dev/sda1 / ext2 1 1" mount still reports rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)/dev/root on / type ext2 (rw,relatime,errors=continue)My questions are:Do I need to worry? Will the drive be correctly unmounted by the kernel on poweroff/reboot?If I want to perform file system checking on boot, can I do that without resorting to an initrd?

Aug 9, 2011I have a program which mounts /dev/sdb1 for which I lack the source code. This device does not exist on my RedHat 9 system and I want to create /dev/sdb1 such that it's an alias for /dev/hdb1 Can I do this? with MAKEDEV?
I need to have an alias which will allow it to mount, not create a symbolic link to an already mounted directory. i.e. 'mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/harddrive' should actually mount /dev/hdb1
General :: Mount USB Drive - Device Pointers Static?
Jun 6, 2011I'm using an external USB drive to perform system backups. The script I'm using has a mount command - mount /dev/sdcx /systembak, it works fine until the external drive is mounted into a different USB port which causes the device path to change and the script needs to be modified to reflect that change. Looking in the /dev/disk/ directory I see ./by-id ./by-label ./by-path ./by-uuid. I've been able to mount the disk using one of the device pointers in those directories; are any of those device pointers static or do they change every time the USB disk is plugged into a different USB port.

General :: Unable To 'mount' And Use Itouch 8Gig Device / Fix It?
Jan 7, 2010What do I call this device in /etc/fstab. Currently the line I'm using is... code...
Having made a mount directory (/media/ipod) an error message tells me
... mount: special device /dev/sdc0 does not exist...
when I try to mount it.
I cannot see it in 'gparted' or 'disk utility' but I can see it on sys log and kern log when I plug it in and remove it.
I have visited several help forums and loaded several types of recommended software (ifuse-libs and mux's etc) but with no satisfactory result.
I have successfully 'Jail broken' the device using 'Blackra1n' on a windows machine.
It used to appear on the desktop but alas...no more. I've obviously broken something!

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Cannot Mount Hard Disk: Block Count Exceeds Size Of Device
May 11, 2011I have one hard disk (call her HDA) that contains nothing but a single ext4 partition containing a backup of all my important data. Last night I did a clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 on my primary hard disk (call her HDB) and from there proceeded to upgrade directly to Ubuntu 11.04 upgrade. In 10.10, I was able to read HDA just fine. However after the upgrade, I can no longer mount this drive. When mounting from file browser:
Code:
Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda,missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so The end of dmesg said the following:
Code:
dmesg | tail
[ 82.130904] EXT4-fs (sda): bad geometry: block count 122096646 exceeds size of device (122096381 blocks)
my hard disk has a block count greater than the size of my device. I've done my background searching on this and tried a command line utility I've never heard of before:
Code:
# sudo e2fsck /dev/sda
e2fsck 1.41.14 (22-Dec-2010)
The filesystem size (according to the superblock) is 122096646 blocks
The physical size of the device is 122096381 blocks
[code]....
this is as far as I've gotten. This drive holds over a decade's worth of work for me and is extremely valuable. I really didn't think that the Ubuntu upgrade process would mess with this drive, seeing as the Ubuntu install was contained on an entirely different drive. What is it that I need to do to restore my drive to working status?
General :: Mount Custom Device Node (ex: "/dev/mydevice")
Jun 16, 2010I'm trying to mount a custom device node for each usb port of my pc. For example: Every pen drive connected to my usb 1-1.2 will be called /dev/usb2 and mounted on /mnt/usb2, on usb 1-1.3 port the device node will be called /dev/usb3 and mounted on /mnt/usb3.
I'm using an embedded linux, the device handler is mdev. Editing mdev.rules I'm able to manage new devices and write special rules for them (on /bin/hotplug.sh I can mount the /dev/udisk device on anywhere I wanna):
Code:
# This will be called after scsi emulation, so the
# new device (sda1, sdb1 ...) will be managed by /bin/hotplug.sh
mmcblk0p10:00600=sdcard */bin/hotplug.sh
sda10:00600=udisk * /bin/hotplug.sh
[Code].....
Is there anyway to change scsi emulation configurations or code? I want to call my pen drive on my way (/dev/usb1 instead of /dev/sd*)!
